Profiles, posts with pictures? Gone... - 13/01/2003 09:13

I've been through every setting in my profile and can't get the picture to show up by the persons post... They're profile image? Anyway, it's no big deal I'd just like to see that stuff. It's gotta be a setting somewhere I'm missing because if I don't log in I see them fine.

Tried it.... no dice...

View other user's pictures in their profile?
Set to Yes

View user's pictures with their posts?
Set to Yes

Do you want to view other user's signatures with their posts
Set to Yes

Any other ideas? It's gotta be something I'm missing right? Is it possible somethings hosed with my profile?

Try turning it off, submitting, then back on and submitting again?

YES!! I fixed it... that was begining to bug me... I went back and set the "Post Format" setting to "side" instead of top and they magically appeared.

Oh, so that's what that means.

Boy, `Top' sure is ugly.

Yeah... I've been looking at it that way since I first logged in many moons ago.... Jeez.... what a difference. So heres a question about proper bbs usage. When you select an image for your signature, do you really need to host that image? Or can I just attach it to a post and use the address to where its stored on here?

That's the way many folks, including myself, do it.

Just make sure that it's sized appropriately.

Isn't that the only way it's allowed? Biblically speaking

Cool, thanks, I think I'll take you up on that.

Actually it'd probably be easier just to do the above mentioned... but thanks anway...

You can do as you please, but you can just change your profile to reference http://empeg.comms.net/files/134098-homersxray.jpg

Yup... I did... just needed to post it before I could link it... (I think?)

In reply to:

I feared where that one was going

Options.... excellent I like options thanks! So I need some re-assurance... Am I a complete idiot for not noticing that setting earlier?

Re: Profiles, posts with pictures? Gone... - 15/01/2003 13:43

I noticed it and couldn't figure out what it did and was too shiftless to set it and look.

So either, no, you're not an idiot (for that, anyway ), or you're at least better than someone who's both an idiot and lazy.
